When David King joined Fern Prairie United Methodist Church in Camas as head pastor in July 2018, the church was in the midst of a transition period.
“We were kind of regrouping and trying to decide what our mission is going to be in this area,” said Camas resident Sharon Carmichael, the church’s treasurer. “(King) really wants to reach out to our neighbors, particularly the new development down the road, and try to boost our membership.”
